3.16.7-ckt23 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

---8<------------------------------------------------------------

From: Andrey Ryabinin <aryabinin at virtuozzo.com>

commit e459dfeeb64008b2d23bdf600f03b3605dbb8152 upstream.

ip6addrlbl_get() has never worked. If ip6addrlbl_hold() succeeded,
ip6addrlbl_get() will exit with '-ESRCH'. If ip6addrlbl_hold() failed,
ip6addrlbl_get() will use about to be free ip6addrlbl_entry pointer.

Fix this by inverting ip6addrlbl_hold() check.

Fixes: 2a8cc6c89039 ("[IPV6] ADDRCONF: Support RFC3484 configurable address selection policy table.")
